Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include the accounts of KBR, Inc. and the subsidiaries it controls, including VIEs where it is the primary beneficiary. We account for investments over which we have significant influence, but not a controlling financial interest, using the equity method of accounting. See Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our equity investments and VIEs. All material intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.
Segment Reorganization
Effective January 1, 2021, we implemented a strategic change to the structure of our internal organization and transitioned from a three-core business segment model to a two-core business segment model comprised of Government Solutions and Sustainable Technology Solutions. The new Sustainable Technology Solutions segment is anchored by our innovative, proprietary process technologies. It also includes our highly synergistic advisory practice focused on energy transition and net-zero carbon emission consulting as well as the technology-led industrial solutions focused on innovative digital operations and maintenance ("O&M") solutions and advanced remote operations capabilities to improve throughput, reliability and environmental sustainability. Infusing high-end, sustainability expertise, client relationships and innovative, technology-led O&M solutions into Sustainable Technology Solutions is expected to increase resilience, generate new opportunities, simplify the business model and better position us to deliver its offerings across a broader industrial base.
Effective January 1, 2021, we reorganized our reportable segments, which are equivalent to our operating segments, and businesses as follows:
• Government Solutions includes the following four business units: Defense & Intel, formerly the Defense Systems Engineering and Centauri businesses; Science & Space, formerly called Space & Mission Solutions; Readiness & Sustainment, formerly called Logistics; and International.
• Sustainable Technology Solutions includes components of Energy Solutions, Technology Solutions and Non-strategic Business, with the exception of our Australian infrastructure business which moved to GS International in our Government Solutions segment.
• Other includes corporate and other.
Upon this segment change in 2021, all prior period information was recast to reflect this change in reportable segments. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion on our segments.
Business Reorganization and Restructuring Activities
During fiscal year 2020, our management initiated and approved restructuring plans in response to the dislocation of the global energy market resulting from the decline in oil prices and the COVID-19 pandemic. The restructuring plan included the reorganization of KBR's management structure primarily within our legacy Energy Solutions business segment during the first and second quarters of 2020 and entailed approving strategic business restructuring activities and deciding to discontinue pursuing certain projects, principally lump-sum EPC and commoditized construction services. The restructuring plan is designed to refine our market focus, optimize costs and improve operational efficiencies. As a result of these restructuring activities and adverse market conditions, we performed interim impairment tests in 2020 of our goodwill, intangible assets, significant investments and various other assets. See Note 7 "Restructuring Charges and Asset Impairments" and Note 9 "Goodwill and Goodwill Impairment" for further discussion of restructuring and impairment charges recognized during the year ended December 31, 2020.
